Hi All,
I am designing a purge process for a db that has grown to almost 200GB.
My purge process will remove about 1/3 of the 500 million rows spread
over seven tables. Currently there are about 35 indexes defined on
those seven tables. My question is will there be a performance gain by
dropping those indexes, doing my purge, and re-creating the indexes. I
am afraid that leaving those indexes in place will create a lot of
extra overhead in my delete statements by having to maintain the
indexes. I know that it could take many hours to rebuild the indexes
afterward, but I am planning on doing that anyway. The reason that I
want to know whether I should drop the indexes ahead of time, is I may
not be able to do the entire purge at once and the tables may need to
be accessed between purges. If this occurs, I will need to have those
indexes in place.
So do I drop the indexes before the purge and re-create them later or
do I leave them in place and re-index them afterward?
I'm using SqlDataSource and an Access database. Let's say I got two tables:user: userID, usernamemessage: userID, messagetextLet's say a user can register on my website, and leave several messages there. I have an admin page where I can select a user and delete all of his messages just by clicking one button.What would be the best (and easiest) way to make this?Here's my suggestion:I have made a "delete query" (with userID as parameter) in MS Access. It deletes all messages of a user when I type in the userID and click ok.Would it be possible to do this on my ASP.net page? If yes, what would the script look like?(yes, it is a newbie question)
I ran the following query in Query Analyzer on a machine running SQL Server 2000. I'm attempting to delete from a linked server running SQL Server 2005:
DELETE FROM sql2005.production.dbo.products WHERE vendor='Foo' AND productId NOT IN ( SELECT productId FROM sql2000.staging.dbo.fooProductList )
The status message (and @@ROWCOUNT) told me 8 rows were affected, but nothing was actually deleted; when I ran a SELECT with the same criteria as the DELETE, all 8 rows are still there. So, once more I tried the DELETE command. This time it told me 7 rows were affected; when I ran the SELECT again, 5 of the rows were still there. Finally, after running this exact same DELETE query 5 times, I was able to remove all 8 rows. Each time it would tell me that a different number of rows had been deleted, and in no case was that number accurate.
I've never seen anything like this before. Neither of the tables involved were undergoing any other changes. There's no replication going on, or anything else that should introduce any delays. And I run queries like this all day, involving every thinkable combination of 2000 and 2005 servers, that don't give me any trouble.
Does anyone have suggestions on what might cause this sort of behavior?
I had created a trigger which sees that whether a database is updated if it is its copy the values of the updated row into another control table now I want to read the content of control_table into BIzTalk and after reading I want to delete it.Can any one suggest the suitable ay to do this?
I have a SQL script to insert data into a table as below:
INSERT into [SRV1INS2].BB.dbo.Agents2 select * from [SRV2INS14].DD.dbo.Agents
I just want to set a Trigger on Agents2 Table, which could delete all rows in the table , before carry out any Insert operation using above statement.I had below Table Trigger on [SRV1INS2].BB.dbo.Agents2 Table as below: But it did not perform what I intend to do.
USE [BB] GO /****** Object: Trigger   Script Date: 24/07/2015 3:41:38 PM ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
Stepping thru the code with the debugger shows the dataset rows being deleted.
After executing the code, and getting to the page presentation. Then I stop the debug and start the page creation process again ( Page_Load ). The database still has the original deleted dataset rows. Adding rows works, then updating works fine, but deleting rows, does not seem to work.
The dataset is configured to send the DataSet updates to the database. Use the standard wizard to create the dataSet.
cDependChildTA.Fill(cDependChildDs._ClientDependentChild, UserId); rowCountDb = cDependChildDs._ClientDependentChild.Count; for (row = 0; row < rowCountDb; row++) { dr_dependentChild = cDependChildDs._ClientDependentChild.Rows[0]; dr_dependentChild.Delete(); //cDependChildDs._ClientDependentChild.Rows.RemoveAt(0); //cDependChildDs._ClientDependentChild.Rows.Remove(0); /* update the Client Process Table Adapter*/ // cDependChildTA.Update(cDependChildDs._ClientDependentChild); // cDependChildTA.Update(cDependChildDs._ClientDependentChild); } /* zero rows in the DataSet at this point */ /* update the Child Table Adapter */ cDependChildTA.Update(cDependChildDs._ClientDependentChild);
Hi, I'm really not very good at SQL sadly, so would really appreciate any help. I'm basically working on a website that has a chatroom. I want it so the chatroom table only holds, say 15 lines of chat, then once a new line of chat is entered the last line in the table is deleted, so the table always has a maximum of just 15 rows. The fields are: MessageID Poster Message DateTime I've tried my best, but just don't know how to do it. I suppose it's something like: SELECT TOP 15 * FROM Chatroom ORDER BY MessageID DESC - this gives me the last 15 rows. Then I need a delete statement to delete the rest?! Sorry, I am very bad at SQL, so any help would be great. This is written in a stored procedure. Can the stored procedure pick up whether there are 15 or more rows in the table, and if so then delete all bar the newest 15 rows of chat? To summarise: I want a stored procedure that checks if 15 or more rows exist, if they do then delete all bar the newest 15 rows. Thanks, Ricky

Hi,I need to delete rows from my user tables dependant upon there nonexistence from another table:delete studentwhere student_id not in (select student_id from tblStudent)The reasons is convoluted, simplest explanation is that our operationalsystem allows the change of business keys. This wreaks havoc in thedata warehouse.So, I'm look for help on how I can delete rows from tables that have acolumn STUDENT_ID. I'd like the script to search for the tables, thenperform the delete.I don't know where information about user tables are stored, nor how toloop through the results to do the delete.Any Ideas are appreciated.

I have a Foreach loop container where I populate a Ado recordset with some ids. Then I use another Foreach loop container to shred the Recordset and perform some task. Once Second Foreach Loop container is completed, my Recordset is getting populated again by the parent Foreach loop, except it is not discarding the data from before. Is there a way I can reset or delete rows from recordset after my second Foreach Loop container so that I don't duplicate rows in the Recordset.
